Pros
Good name on the CV. The company pays for the APA and even CIP exam. You get a raise the first 5 years of your staying. Contribution for the leap card and for the gym opposite the company.
Cons
As a Team Lead I always felt like I couldn't properly take care of my own team. At the end of each year who have to rate your team members. Unfortunately in Allianz Care you have to choose one team member who "stands out". The other NEED TO BE RATED as average and get "fully meet". We Team Leads asked several times to change this way of rating as it's demotivating for the whole team and for team leads it's even a harder decision whom to choose for the EXCEED rating. December is the month were these ratings are given and I am just thankful that this year I don't need to make this decision. With the promotions it's the same. I had great team members in my team but due to the company's budget I wasn't able to promote everyone who deserved it. During 1 to 1s I was listening to complains from my team members and felt (as my title is called) helpless. As a team lead you are between your team and the company's reputation. You need to be careful what you are saying. My team members were complaining that we don't have much foreigners in management positions and what should I tell them? It's simple mathematics. You can count foreign management on one hand. I spent a few years in Allianz Care. I enjoyed really great moments. I don't regret anything. But there are just too many things that need to change. HR is doing some changes. They are trying to improve the working environment. But it's going too slow. Don't forget that Dublin offers many great opportunities. Try to keep the good employees in the company. There is no point to let them leave and to hire new ones.
